Beskrivning
Tom Palmer’s bestselling WWl novel, based on the true story of war hero and footballing legend Jack Cock. It's the proudest moment of Jack's life – his debut as a professional footballer. Now he has a chance to achieve his dream of playing for his country. But it's 1914 and the world is at war. Talk of sportsmen's cowardice leads to the formation of a Footballers' Battalion and Jack has little choice but to join up. The promise of a Cup in Flanders offers a glimmer of hope, but Jack and his teammates will have to survive a waking nightmare if they are ever to play again.

"Another text that marks [Tom Palmer] out as a writer determined to find the soul within the soldier … its fast pace will keep readers hurtling through" – Just Imagine"It's a stroke of brilliance to pair football with wartime history, and this combination is sure to enthral readers … a lesson in empathy as much as history" – BookTrust
